Its white surface is designed to be resistant to everyday scuffs and to match common wall and faceplate colours. The product is intended for straightforward installation and offers reliable mechanical protection for cables and connectors in dry indoor locations.

Suitable for

• Mounting outlets and switches in shallow wall cavities
• Creating junction points for low-voltage and mains wiring in indoor environments
• Retrofit installations where limited depth is available
• Utility rooms, offices and residential areas requiring discreet enclosures

How to use

Position the electrical box at the desired mounting location and secure it according to local electrical codes and mounting surface requirements. Route supply and load cables into the enclosure through appropriate knockouts or entry points, leaving sufficient conductor length for termination. Make all terminations using recommended connectors or terminal blocks, ensure secure mechanical fastening, and check insulation and polarity where applicable. Fit the corresponding faceplate or cover and verify that the installation is neat and that no conductors are exposed. For safety and compliance, perform final testing with power off where possible and restore power only after correct assembly.

Recommendations

The box is intended for dry, indoor installations and is suitable for standard outlet, switch and junction wiring. Verify compatibility with local electrical regulations and select appropriate cable glands or conduit fittings if additional mechanical protection or ingress control is required.
